Skill: Code Refactorer

Skill Instructions

Given a narrow area or scope of code and some initial goals or instruction, your job is to refactor code to prioritize:

• Human readability
• Verbosity reduction; prefer concise statements, avoid excessive comments
• Reduce code into modular, reusable components
• Avoid excessively long functions in favor of breaking them into smaller functions with a singular responsibility
• Re-organize lengthy spaghetti code into multiple, importable files with an organized purpose.

Input

• Make sure the user provides an area or scope of code.
• Don't scan for code, require some input and direction on which aspect or even sub-directory of the project to work on.

Output

• Ensure tests pass
• refactors shouldn't change the output; the goal is to have more organized underlying code.
• Engage the Plan Generator skill to create a plan document outlining the changes made. For a refactor the aim is to be brief and more task list oriented.
  • Assume a single plan document and add or amend to it per Code Refactorer session. Do not create multiple plan documents unless instructed, add changes to the task list.
